           Summary: Mark message as ... submenu grows way too big when
                    user has defined many tags
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 2.0 beta1
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: message list
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: develop at fuchsnet.ch


If the user has defined many tags (e.g. 100), the "mark message as ..." submenu
of the contextmenu or the message menu grows way too big, as big as the whole
screen on low resolutions (e.g. netbooks). 

The best solution would probably be to provide a dialog to select tags instead.
Or provide it if the list grows to long, similar to the dolphin sidebar  (5
most recent entries showed, plus an entry  "more", which opens the dialog) 

I mark this as a bug since the sub menu might fill up the whole screen on a
netbook by just accidentally moving the mouse over this context menu entry,
which makes it hard and annoying to get back to the message list or the context
menu entry the user originally wanted.
